THQ Confirm uDraw for Xbox 360 & PlayStation 3

The revolutionary uDraw GameTablet from THQ, which has defined an entirely new category of gaming creativity on a videogame console, will come to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 consoles this autumn, it was officially confirmed today by Brian Farrell, THQ's President and CEO. For its planned November debut worldwide on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, uDraw will adopt an entirely new look: a sleek, contemporary design that incorporates console controls directly into the uDraw GameTablet.

Give it an app for LBP2.

[Chocoboh]

That'd actually make sense lol

Always wondered if Sony would release something like that

[ATiElite]

I think it's about time something like this came to these "supposedly" next-gen consoles. uDraw would be a way to offer a ton of educational games for the younger gamers out there (and some of you idiots) between COD marathons.

Sure wii and especially V-tech have a lot but many younger kids are shying away from those systems for the bright lights and big explosions of the PS3 and 360.

Video-Gaming style education really helps kids learn faster cause they are learning and applying what they have learned in a fun way.
Bravo to THQ!

This looks intensely stupid.

I agree, I don't think there is a drawing game on the XBOX 360 or PS3? If there is, there surely can't be enough to warrent a drawing pad?

[skrug]

there's beat sketch

[LocO_o]

Eye Pets had you drawing something for the little monkey dog or what ever it is.

[ChickeyCantor]

"I don't think there is a drawing game on the XBOX 360 or PS3?"

Really now?
The whole idea of this uDraw is to create games for it.

[MRHARDON]

Then why RELEASE IT IF THERE ARE NO GAMES FOR IT CURRENTLY?!

Its like releasing a new console without any games....
"Here is the next gen console but we dont have any games, so go make games for it guyz!!?

[ozstar]

The Monkey Dog?

Yeah ok

[MrDead]

They should link it to sports games so you can do your own commentary complete with on screen scribbling, "he should of kicked the ball over there bob"

[White-Sharingan]

Why?

[RavageX]

Why not?

[LocO_o]

Not why!

[Machioto]

Why ask why?

[LittleBigSackboyPS3]

Why are we asking why?

[MrDead]

Why not ask why?

[RavageX]

Ok, now we are supposed to drink Bud Dry.

...at least thats what the rule book says.

[Who]

Hmm, it does seem useless, especially when we have kinect and move that can pretty much do the same thing?

Beatsketcher anyone?

[LoaMcLoa]

Kinect and Move are far from as accurate as a tablet, mostly because you can relax your hand on it.

I would like to see this being compatible with Little Big Planet 2, it would save you lotsa time.

[TheROsingleB]

Anyone remember Mario Paint? That set up was great back in the day - how is this different? If anything, its a much better and more refined version which is great for those creative types out there.

[GodsHand]

I remember that title, too bad it had limited resources on what could be done on it, but the music generater was the best (check out youtube for some creative music). The only difference I say is the presiscion it would have over the mouse, and depending on what titles would support it.

[TheROsingleB]

For a console peripheral back in the 90's it was as good as it was going to get, lol. The precision of that particular mouse was relatively bad, i agree, but I could see a lot of potential for this uDraw tablet if it is implemented and supported by developers properly.
I assume this will use a USB port, unless they can do it wirelessly but if it's USB then it looks like i'll have a new tablet for the PC as well.

[RavageX]

What would REALLY be nice, is if it doubles as a nice tablet I could use on my pc for drawing....

[Vizion26]

THQ are backstabbers. Nintendo helped them develop it for the Wii. Meh, it's not like it's going to sell well on the HD twins.
